I’m currently a Presidential Fellow at The Ohio State University, where I’m pursuing my second Ph.D. in Developmental Psychology. I earned my first Ph.D. in Developmental Psychology from Middle East Technical University (METU) in 2024. I also hold three M.S. degrees: one in Psychology from OSU, another in Psychology from METU, and a third in Sociology from METU. I completed my B.A. in Sociology at METU, with a double major in Philosophy and a minor in Political Science and Public Administration.

My research focuses on coparenting, couple relationships, and family well-being across diverse cultural contexts, and I’ve published multiple studies in these areas. Outside of my academic pursuits, I enjoy painting, playing squash, and horseback riding.
